EA how do you explain this in your games?

I just have to return all kicks, punts and INTs between the hashmarks. Works pretty well for me.

It was intentional. The questions here is, why? As for the well played video mentioned earlier, where it's stated that 'we didn't dumb down the defense' - if you watch the videos playing in that clip, it appears as if they didn't. I don't think he was lying at the time. I'm thinking something was changed at the end of the developement cycle to open up the offense even more and this was accomplished by neutering the defense, especially the DL and the pursuit angles. I actually PMed Adam my theory/question, which wasn't responded to.

They weren't as bad before, but the reason they are bad is the SPEED DIFFERENCE. Its not like they changed the AI, they just changed the speed. The AI players react like they have more speed than they actually show on field.

Thats my opinion about whats causing it anyway.

BTW the patch has made returns so so so so much better.
